I'm also not comfortable working with atheists who teach children to spout scientific "proof" that there is no higher power, even when the children aren't old enough to understand a word they are saying.

agreed. Atheists are the WORST. They're so smug and think they know everything when they actually know nothing. Science is only as good as the person interpretting the data, which we know changes constantly as we learn more. Things we just KNEW 20, 50, 100, 1000 years ago have been proven false over time. There is no possible way you can prove God doesn't exist. None.

There is also no possible way you can prove God exists. None.

Maybe if you read the Bible you would understand.

That is not what I said, at all.

My frustration is with parents that teach children to spout geological theories well before the children are old enough to understand what they are. I have zero issue discussing religion and science with adults and kids who are old enough to comprehend the science.

I've read the Bible, many times, in fact. Irrelevant as *proof* of anything and if you don't understand that, you clearly have don't know how the Bible came into being. Educate yourself.

we have a very conservative nanny in our progressive christian home and it is fine. She doesn't contradict us and reinforces our values with he kids and if uncomfortable tells the kids to speak to us about it.
